The Burrowses also said the two staff members who led the seminar were both homosexuals who encouraged the students to remain active in promoting the issue. They said both instructors encouraged students to start gay and lesbian clubs at their schools after the students returned to their homes. The Burrowses also alleged that students were “taught in their classes to question and not believe what they had been taught by their parents all these years.” They said their son was told that the Bible was not true, was filled with inconsistencies, and did not apply to society today.

Would they encourage kids to go back to their schools and start clubs which promote the truth that mankind has always believed: that homosexuality is an immoral sin?

Homosexuality is a Godless religion.

Whatever happened to separation of church and state?!?!?!?

My state is becoming more like Massachusetts every day. It is sad....

I have a friend who was born in South Vietnam. This sounds much like the schooling he received after the North took over.

What we need is separation of SEX and State!

“Regardless of gender of person and partner, if an early sexual contact is not abusive or coercive, then it likely has a positive impact on adolescent and adult sexual arousal, pleasure, satisfaction, and acceptance of various sexual behaviors for self and others,” Savin-Williams wrote."

I am so outraged by this. Words fail me. And this is in North Carolina (my home state), not Massachusetts! Did they also teach about STDs and AIDS? I have absolutely no sympathy for any homosexuals. Who do these people think they are, pumping this filth into our kids? I am really, really sick of it! But what can be done? Nothing. They win.

From Cornell - no surprise there!

Sounds like a recruiting program. I wonder if they had a session on how Today's Teens can avoid the sexual advances of the local pervert NEA member?

Did the "Governor's School" not issue a program or a schedule of sessions before hand? If not, why not? It's more evidence that the NEA needs some type of real oversight.

[AD from SpringBay]

A book you'll never see promoted at the Governor's School: The Old AIDS Patient.

I wonder how in the world do you promote homosexuality to a teem male. As a male when I was a teen all I thought about was teen females. So do they show you pictures of naked guys or something? Maybe they show you pictures of really well groomed guys with really neat rooms. I just can't figure how you promote something as sick as sodomy.

[dighton]

Titles of other optional seminars include ... “Meet Your Meat, Part I” and “Part II.”

Not sure I want to know.

[ClearCase_guy]

You found the nugget. This is about recruitment, no doubt. Introduce the kids to homosexual sex at a young age, and they will be made into homosexuals.

It's a form of mental illness, most often caused by sexual abuse during childhood. The homosexuals know this and make use of it to recruit new members.

They'll tell you they have no agenda. These filthy vermin have to ambush children to do their recruiting. They deserve everyones contempt and scorn.

Jim and Beverly Burrows say their son returned home from last year’s Governor’s School “confused” about homosexuality as a result of the seminar, and that they have had to seek family counseling.

That is possibly one of the stupidest things I've ever heard. I don't think he was confused at all - they just don't like what he learned. The seminar was optional, he chose to attend, and then chose to buy the book. His parents sound like those types of nutjobs that send their kids to be "de-gayified" if they come out of the closet.

This program is much worse than just promoting homosexuality among youth. I was nominated for NC's Governor's School in 1975, auditioned, flubbed the audition and was very disappointed until I heard fromt the kids who went what it was all about. Even way back then in the dark ages they were promoting a liberal, elitist agenda. The main thing I remember the kids talking about was how they were told repeatedly that they were so much better than the rest of their peers and that they needed to be enlightened leaders for their generation or some other such silliness. I remember being very thankful that I did not go because it would have driven me nuts. It is nothing more than a tool of liberal indoctrination that targets the bright and talented kids.

[cinives]

This got my attention too. Was it about veganism or masturbation ? Or taxidermy ?

Inquiring minds want to know...

[rj45mis]

Folks, we are engaged in an all out war for the minds of our children and, believe it, the cards are stacked against the fundamentalists. These f***ing militant perverts have a free ride with the agenda.

[TheZMan]

No kidding. But nowadays it's more along the lines of "oh dear Lord, I don't want my kids listening to this !@#$".

Right now I'm dealing with a school that says the pledge of allegiance in english... then in spanish. I figure another year and they'll bring one of these "educational videos" to the school for assembly viewing.
